Just lovely. You are a little ahead of us, our trout lilies leaves are up, but no flowers yet, and the ramps are just about ready to harvest. We saw our first coltsfoot on the weekend, and I was hoping to harvest some today, but it was just too wet. Hopefully on the weekend. I will have to look up toothwort, I have never noticed it around here…will keep my eyes open to see if we have any.

Welcome to These Light Footsteps, the blog related to Light Footsteps Herb Farm & Learning Center.
My name is Christine and I'm a permaculturist, herbalist, and biologist doing my best to follow the rhythms of the natural world. I like to write about herbalism, backyard farming, permaculture projects, simple living, and finding spirit in nature. I'm also an attachment/gentle parent and advocate for women's choices in birth.
Please look around, I hope you'll find something you like!
